    From our salesman, Ryan, to the office staff, to the roofing team, everyone at 1st Choice Roofing was friendly and professional. Our new roof looks great and they were awesome to help us with the My Safe Florida Wind Mitigation grant program. We highly recommend 1st Choice Roofing.

    I have already shared my experience but for some reason Google withheld the review , roof was installed in 2017 so when we bought the house it was there already. Our insurance company cancelled our insurance siting we have issue with the roof that needs to be fixed so we called in multiple times to get them to check on what the insurance sent but owner was always in a meeting and they would not schedule a visit to come and check . We still have another 5 years of material and labour warranty as per the contract but they did abide by it and we had to find another insurance. They responded via email to insurance saying all good , no problems. I do not recommend them as after service is as important as installing new roof and this is not professional nor ethical what they did to us , not sure why the high reviews. Update; Typical response from business , not owning anything, no where in our review where we said roof was leaking , insurance claimed that there is a buckling issue. We did not choose to be your customers, the house we bought had the roof installed already and we have a contract to prove it !!!!?!? Between your company and the homeowner of the house whoever that is. Based on what you are accusing people of lying? so convenient.!!!!!

    Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we appreciate your patience as we address your concerns. It's important to clarify some details regarding this situation. We understand that there were concerns about an issue with the roof. To provide clarity, we'd like to confirm that our team visited the property in question. After a thorough examination, we determined that the problem was indeed structural in nature, not related to the roof itself. It's important to note that this was not a customer of ours, and there was no warranty associated with the roof, as it was installed prior to your ownership. We strive to assist homeowners to the best of our ability, even when we are not the original installer. However, in this case, the issue was beyond the scope of roofing and fell into the category of structural matters. We value your feedback and are here to address any concerns you may have. If you have any further questions or need clarification, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly.

    Worst company ever. I would never ever recommend them to anyone, they use subcontractors, poor quality and never answer phone. owner is the worst i ever delt with

    Reply from the business

    It is our goal to achieve a 5 star rating from every customer. However, you are not in our system as even someone we’ve done an estimate for in the last 20 years. So there may be some confusion. We did receive a call yesterday that was intended for 1st Choice Roofing located in Philadelphia in which the customer was threatening a lawsuit. Mistaken identity may be the case here as we get calls for them as well as another company with a very similar name as ours in the Brandon area. I ask that you call our office at 727-847-7663 to clarify this situation. Even if you are another company’s customer we are willing to help guide you through getting your issues resolved. If for any reason you are our customer we most definitely want to discuss you issues and take corrective action to satisfy you.

    Never came out sent an email quote well above and beyondWhat a quote should beNot reputable

  • 1 out of 5Craig5 years ago

    What a major disappointment. Don't waste your time. Trying to get my aged Grandmother's roof repaired from my out of state location. Checked on Yelp for reviews and recommendations. Decided to use 1st Choice for one of my three estimates based on their reviews and ratings. Started out okay with good communications, but then rapidly deteriorated. Took several calls to reconnect after the initial contact and attempt to get someone out for an estimate. After the estimate was done (by Mike) I was given a verbal quote. I requested a written estimate from the office for my records, protection and estimate comparison. It never arrived, so I made additional calls to request that it be emailed. When the call was finally returned, it appeared the office (Kristin) didn't even know who I was or have any information regarding our previous contacts. At first she even denied that they had done the estimate. After being presented with some "specifics" from my notes she decided to consult with someone else (Mike?). Upon return to the phone she confirmed someone had done an estimate but denied they had ever given me a verbal quote for repairs. Said that they would not repair the roof and that I should only replace it. Told them that I felt it was my decision and that I would be making it based on numerous factors. I asked them to just send me the verbal quote as a written quote for both repair and replace. They refused ... I hung up. What a waste of my time. They should be called: Last Choice Roofing, not 1st Choice.

    Reply from the business

    Craig Sorry your experience was not what you expected. Not every roof is a candidate for repair. When a roof is beyond repair it’s not easy to hear but it’s the fact of the matter. I’m sure a less ethical company may be willing to repair that roof but we are not. As far as the communication goes we only enter our customers under one name. In this property’s case we were having to speak with a realtor, yourself and other relatives. I do realize that is a problem and will work on finding a software program to help us improve in that area. We realize that it is difficult for you since you are out of state and were not present when we were on site. We thank you very much for your valuable time and wish you the best of luck.

    I had high hopes for this place because of the good reviews.Asked to get a quote. They came out to look at my roof gave me said quote I told them I wanted the work done per the quote was told someone would call and schedule a time with me to do it and have heard nothing from them a week later. I will be shopping around for another roofing company.

  • 5 out of 5Michael Sancheza day ago

    I had 1st choice put a new roof on my home 9 years ago. That experience with the company and the owner was great. They were competitive with a professional installation. This morning, after a hard rain all night, I discovered a small leak in the bedroom of my home. I contacted them, and they came out the same day. My roof is 9 years old and has gone through multiple tropical events; I was not expecting a warranty claim, just the service i got when they installed my roof the first time. They not only fixed the leak, but they also took care of some other issues at no cost. I even argued that they should get compensated for their time, and he cared more about me, the customer than the $$. People like this almost don't exist anymore. Thank you, 1st choice!

    Reply from the business

    Michael, I read this one twice. Thank you. I remember your roof, and I'm glad you picked up the phone this morning instead of waiting it out. A leak in the bedroom after a night of hard rain is no small thing, and getting a crew out to you the same day was the least we could do. For what it's worth, you arguing that we should be paid for our time says more about you than it does about us — but nine years later, that visit was still on us. That's how I want this company to treat people. Thank you for trusting us with your home back then, for calling us first now, and for taking the time to write this. Reviews like yours are how a small Hudson, FL roofing company keeps its doors open, and I don't take a single one for granted. You've got my number. Any leak, any missing shingle, any storm that rolls through Pasco County — call me at (727) 847-7663 and we'll come take a look, free of charge. Grateful for you, Michael. — Ken Phillips, Owner, 1st Choice Roofing, Inc. | Roof repair, roof replacement & storm damage service in Hudson, FL and the Tampa Bay area

    If you’re shopping for a new roof, this is hands down, the right choice. They stand behind their work. We didn’t own the house when 1st choice replaced the roof, but 6 years later, they still stood behind their work . That shows the content of their character and we couldn’t appreciate these people more. Thank you so much!

    We had a few minor leaks in our sunroom and reached out to roofing contractors for estimates. Daniel stood out with his punctuality, and attention to detail. He thoroughly measured the area, inspected the roof, and provided a very reasonable estimate. He arrived the next day earlier than expected and completed the project promptly. We are extremely satisfied with the service and would recommend 1st Choice Roofing to anyone looking for reliable, professional roofing services.

    I couldn't be happier with my experience with 1st Choice Roofing! From the very beginning, the entire process was smooth, professional, and completely stress-free. A huge thank you to Courtney, who was absolutely outstanding throughout the entire experience. She was knowledgeable, responsive, patient, and always took the time to answer every question I had. She made what could have been a stressful project feel easy and straightforward. One thing that really stood out was that they offered three different pricing tiers. Instead of a one-size-fits-all estimate, they gave me options that fit different budgets and needs, which made the decision much easier and allowed me to choose the roof that was right for my home. The crew did excellent work, the communication was fantastic, and everything was completed exactly as promised. It's refreshing to work with a company that truly cares about its customers and delivers on its word. If you're looking for an honest, professional roofing company, I highly recommend 1st Choice Roofing.

    We had a great experience with 1st Choice Roofing! The entire team was very nice, professional, and helpful throughout the whole process. They worked quickly without cutting corners, and the quality of the work was excellent. What really stood out was how well they cleaned everything up afterward — you could hardly tell they had been there except for the beautiful new roof! Highly recommend them to anyone looking for fast, reliable, and friendly service.

    1st choice roofing replaced our roof 6 months ago and..... Exceptional work. Every aspect was explained before hand. The roof came out great and we have no issues so A++++++++ outcome. There was a bit of a curve ball with their supplier putting a lien on the house but 1st Choice had nearly daily communication with me and it was resolved in a few days. I would def recommend this company to anyone who is looking for exceptional work for a really good rate.

    Highly recommend. Communication was fantastic from the time we signed the contract until the final inspection was completed. The job was started sooner than expected which was a plus. They use quality material - Owens Corning. We went with onyx black and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. The roof looks great!

The latest post from this business

Posted by 1st Choice Roofing, Inc. to their own Google profile 5 months ago. Their words, not ours.

My Safe Florida Home Grant — Free Wind Mitigation Inspection for Tampa Bay Homeowners Florida's My Safe Florida Home program is open for the 2025–26 cycle, and lawmakers reappropriated more than $405 million this spring toward the backlog of homeowners waiting on grants. What that means if you own in Pasco, Hernando, Hillsborough or Pinellas County: • The wind mitigation inspection is free and carries no obligation — available even if you earn too much to qualify for a grant. The report alone can earn insurance discounts. • Grants up to $10,000 go to low- and moderate-income homeowners for hurricane hardening: roof-to-wall straps, deck re-nailing, qualifying secondary water resistance, and code-current roof coverings. Moderate income is a 2-to-1 match; low income is fully funded. Two mistakes disqualify people every cycle: skipping the prioritization questionnaire after your inspection, and signing a contract or starting work before written grant approval. We put together a full guide and a short video explaining how the program works and who qualifies.
